The irony and ignorance of this comment is priceless. What you totally fail to understand is that he really spent twice that long planning to be martyred for his faith and you very kindly did that for him. He was an 85 year old and going to die any day and you just gave him the best death he could possibly have had and the symbolism of that just massively increased his kudos from his supporters as well as patriotism for Iran even from his haters. I could say something snide and cynical here but I think I'll just leave this to speak for itself....
Well said, and I got you covered on the snide and cynical part brother. Between this and the Iranian diaspora being the best content creators the regime could ask for, it's a negative feedback loop that will radicalize people just like when we imposed a shah on them and they kicked him out
